Illinois Farmland Value

Farmland is one of the most important assets for agricultural production. We understand that knowing its value is important for making financial decisions. At Soy Capital Ag Services, we are committed to assisting farm owners with these important financial decisions and offer this information as a resource to that end.

Appraisals

The factors that go into giving a farm its value are many and varied. Each farm is unique and has unique variables establishing its value. The only true means of ascertaining a farm's value, short of selling it, is through an appraisal.

Current Farm Listings

One way to evaluate farm values is to see what is currently listed on the market. You can find a comprehensive directory of farmland currently on the market on our Farm Listings Page.
